Gossip columnist Marcello Rubini (Marcello Mastroianni) searches for the meaning of life in a postwar Rome filled with decadent aristocrats and beautiful people, including the compelling Swedish actress Sylvia (Anita Ekberg), who tangles with him in the Trevi Fountain.

Federico Fellini’s sexy and surreal film questions the value of modern life in beautifully shot black- and- white, becoming one of the most influential films in history.

“It’s a film with Fellini’s genius for revealing dreamlike and surreal images everywhere.” – The Guardian
